    @scotland_ewan @MrFlibble72LFC I never watch the Morning shows & I’ve almost completely stopped watching the news now too. I think I’ve seen all of Freeview’s arsenal at least x10 times over each. I will have to get Sky 🙄

  • Gooner725 Deep (@Gooner725) reported

    @BBCiPlayer Hi - can one of your technical staff explain why iPlayer is unable to pass a basic 5.1 soundtrack after all this time? Almost every other streaming service can handle it. Why do I have to choose between UHD + 2.0 or HD (Freeview/Sky) + 5.1. Thanks!

  • janeteastwood Janet Eastwood (@janeteastwood) reported

  • anjack91 anita Jaeckel (@anjack91) reported

    @possetrobbo5 @n_groom Wrong. If you watch or record 'live' TV on any channel – either through your TV or through a website or app – then you need a TV licence. This applies whether you receive Freesat, Freeview or a pay-TV service in your home.

  • thomasforth Tom Forth (@thomasforth) reported

    Really happy about joining "team @duncanrobinson" on so-called freeview. aka TV, without the internet. Cuts down latency to approx. 1 second versus "live". Available, amazingly for such an antique technology in "H.D." too. But, why is there no Newsmax? How am I to inform myself?

  • thesausagekerb The Sausage Kerb (@thesausagekerb) reported

    Only 1000 spectators are allowed to be at @krcircuit for @OfficialBSB this weekend. What a shame. Please support the series and @krcircuit by watching on the 'Quest' Channel. Quest is available on Freesat 167, Sky 144, Freeview 37 and Virgin 172 #Superabikes #KnockhillBSB

    @amg1968 I'm sorry you're experiencing problems with Freeview reception. I have checked the DMs and can see this has been an ongoing problem due to variable reception in your area. Thanks, C

  • LeonSymnz Leo (@LeonSymnz) reported

    @toobbroadband All the clowns complaining they can't watch it... Either watch it on Freeview/sky/VM or on your phone/tether. Stop making such a ******* fuss you clowns That said, communication would have been nice. Any ETA? Or info on the issue?

  • MrEastendersFan Mr Derek SUSAN (@MrEastendersFan) reported

    @itv2 Love Island is ****. My sisters friend Sharon thinks its awful. But my mate John says he doesn't like it but has all episodes recorded on his freeview plus box...
